How to enable Spotipo cloud Hotspot on Meraki Access Points

You can use Spotipo as a custom Radius server on your Meraki network. This allows using your existing Meraki network to deploy a hotspot without the need to have any firmware changes.

Add a Meraki Site



If you still need to do so, please create a Site with Meraki as the WiFi router. Please see

this article on how to create a site.

After creating the site, navigate to Settings -> Meraki Aps. Here you can see the Radius details and the splash page URL for configuring your Meraki network.



Enable a Custom-Hosted Splash page on the Meraki Cloud.



Now Go to the Meraki dashboard and select your network; then navigate to Wireless-> Access control.




In the SSID drop-down menu, choose the SSID you want to configure.





Under the splash page section, choose the splash page method as "Sign-On with " and select the "my Radius server" option.



Configure Walled Garden



Under advanced splash settings, enable Walled garden and add the below entry

app.spotipo.com


If you are using a white-labeled domain, add that as well.

Optionally add the below domains if you want to deploy payment gated hotspot with Stripe.

js.stripe.com  
api.stripe.com  
q.stripe.com


Or if you want to use Login with Facebook

facebook.com  
akamaihd.netakamai.net  
edgecastcdn.net  
facebook.net  
akamaihd.net  
fbcdn.net

Disable Radius Testing



Make sure to disable Radius Testing option in the dashboard, or else you would receive warnings about Radius servers not being reachable by Meraki servers.



Configure Splash page



Go to Wireless -> Splash page and choose the SSID you want to deploy the hotspot on.



Select the Custom splash page URL and copy-paste the Splash URL from spotipo dashboard.



Under Splash Behavior, for the Where should users go after the splash page, select the option as "The URL they were trying to fetch"
